  • confused about the want 700-074 update bios - it's for my computer?

    Hi all

    I am a happy owner of a 700-074 HP Envy computer. I have a question about a recent update BIOS I've seen on the software and drivers download page on the main site HP.COM. I frequently check the site for updates of drivers and software.

    The update in question is classified

    Update BIOS HP Compaq consumer desktop PC (SSID family ROM 2AF3)

    Although the ROMA family corresponds to the family on my computer, it lists the update of a HP Compaq computer.

    This BIOS does the 700-074 want system specifically? I guess it's because it it lists to the title of the download page for 700-074 want systems. However, I don't want to patch my BIOS with the update incorrect if it is considered an error.

    Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hello @boinc127,

    I understand that you are looking to confirm that the update of the BIOS HP Compaq consumer Desktop PC BIOS Update (2AF3 ROM family SSID) is appropriate for your computer. As far as I can tell it's the update of the correct BIOS for your computer.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • HP Envy 700-074 model BIOS corruption, or bug, etc.

    Hello

    My name is Patrick Barker, and I'm an analyst of the blue screen of death core Dump. During the last week, I ran into two users having a HP Envy 700-074 computer and experience the same exact bug check. The first time I met such a bug check, I imagined that the user may have simply received a system with a bad BIOS, things like this happen in computers all the time. Well, the user contacted HP and replaced it with the exact same model course, and he had the same problem.

    Right at that time, I discovered another user knows exactly the same problem as the previous user. With a consistency like this, I wonder if there is a corruption of the BIOS and/or the bug associated with this particular model?

    What is happening is that there is a frequency of verification of bug ACPI_BIOS_ERROR (a5) .

    This bug check indicates that the BIOS Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) computer is not fully compliant with the ACPI specification.

    Error checking A5, {1000, 0, 80001000, 25}

    The 1st setting has always been far 1000.

    1000 = ACPI_BIOS_USING_OS_MEMORY.

    ACPI has been a fatal error during the processing of a region of memory operation. The region of operation memory tried memory card which has been attributed to the use of the OS.

    This bug check usually appears in these 2 scenarios:

    1 BIOS bug / damaged and must be resolved with an update or go back to the manufacturer.

    2 Rootkit (not very common).

    In our case, it is #1. Exactly, what is happening? I can't be quite too sure due to having to have a version controlled ACPI.sys to debug such a question and with what is happening on another system user, I won't use them as guinea pigs. However, this seems a general problem from what I can tell about this model BIOS. For reference, a BIOS update is not currently available for this specific model, so not quite sure that the end user can do, especially if their systems of replacement of the same model have the same question over and over again.

    -----------------

    Two threads where it occurs, I will update if I see anymore:

    1. Windows 8 crashes after being in the mode 'sleep' - Microsoft Community

    2. brand new computer under Windows 8 - 2 accidents in first day - Microsoft Community

    Why I write this here? Well, on the one hand, I can't find a place to contact HP and / r supports directly without really own a HP machine. So, with that said, two questions:

    1. is there a way to contact HP directly on this issue?

    2. is it and/or any other person with this specific model of HP's have this problem?

    Kind regards

  • WANT to 700-074: BIOS update failed HP ENVY 700-074

    I intend to update Windows 10 soon.  HP recommends to update the drivers and BIOS before upgrade.  the original BIOS is listed as FRIEND 80.15 in msinfo32 dated 19/09/2013 (and in the setup of the BIOS as KAI 80.15). The computer came with 8 VICTORY and has been updated to WIN 8.1.  I tried to update the BIOS with the update listed for computers 700 - 0xx WANT to sp66018.exe.  I downloaded and ran the update with the HP Support assistant help.  A DOS window appears, and the update completed.  Norton AntiVirus has been disabled and all programs were closed during installation.  I created a USB file as the recommended window.  After that restart the BIOS version has not changed... Even after several reboots (and stops) and disconnect the power cord (I did some housekeeping to clean the inside of the computer of the dust) the version of the BIOS is still the original.

    What is the correct BIOS update?  There are two listed for my machine - 80.20 Rev. (I used) may 28, 2014

    and 80.24 Rev.A 7 April 2015

    Which is the correct one?  I don't want to install a bad!

    It is possibly disable startup secure in the BIOS for the update to be successful?

    Apparently, the dates are correlated with the version I had.  I tried to install one, be one originally installed... I installed the 80.24 Rev A version dated April 7, 2015 and it updated without problems.

  • Want to 700-074 video card recommendation

    I start to play a MMO and he says my driver is low level. She still plays. There is no newer driver on the HP website and I can't load new driver Intel that HP has installed a driver(for stability) custom

    A more recent MMO starts in April with graphics much higher. I was told that the video card which is on board the system will probably confine myself to the middle level graphics on this game. So I am looking to update my video card. I understand there are limits on what can be installed due to having only a 460W PSU.

    Can anyone recommend a new video card?

    My limit is $300

  • Want to 700-074: memory slots

    My computer came with 12 GB of memory. I checked and the person who built my computer (Microcenter) put the sticks of memory (4 GB and 8 GB) in slots 2 and 4. I just ordered another stick of memory 8 GB. Should I put the two 8 GB sticks in slots 1 and 3 or 2 and 4, is really important? Also if I add the 4 GB stick in a 3rd slot, which will be OK, I heard say adding a 3rd without the 4th might actually slow down a system? Thank you for your time.

    DaveErving

    Hi Dave,.

    The old HP PC have been capricious on the placement of the DIMMs and the specifications.  If modules of memory DIMM "bind" to the top then your PC cannot start and/or controllers can memory return to operation single channel verses two-channel operation.

    The recent HP PC should be more lenient with mix DIMMS, but that is not guaranteed.  I prefer to use the corresponding DIMMs and fill first the blue locations with the largest DIMM.

    You can download CPU-Z to check the specifications of your DIMMS, and, in addition, the operations of channel memory.  I suggest that you do everything first before adding additional DIMM.  If you find that your PC does not work in dual channel mode then back to microcenter for assistance.

  • HP ENVY 700-074: How do the BIOS on my computer?

    My computer works fine. But I would like to know which key to press while the operating system is coming to get the BIOS. I have a HP 700-074 running Windows 10 (64-bit). The processor is an Intel core i5-4430. This computer was purchased in July 2013.

    Typing away, as soon as you turn to go to the Start Menu - from here to the ESC key, you can press f10 to open the Bios Menu.

  • ENVY dv6 - 7373ca: update BIOS WANT dv6

    Hello

    After I managed to remove the two "unknown device" - entered the W10 Device Manager clean install thanks to this forum, I tried to upgrade to the BIOSVersion F.2D Rev a dated August 26, 2014 and listed under Windows 8 (sp68425.exe) which, according to the note, HP recommends highly.

    As I was not sure if this update would work under W10, I first tried the method described (HP Notebook PC - updated BIOS) with the opening of the menu equipment Diagnostics UEFI immediately by pressing the ESC key several times, once per second, until the Boot Menu is displayed and then pressing the F2 key. But unfortunately on the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI screen of my ' WANT dv6 - 7373ca "there are only four options (1. Memory test, 2. Hard drive test, 3. Language, 4. Exit) and no option called 'Firmware Management' or 'BIOS '. Because I would have preferred a BIOS update without starting the Windows operating system, is there something I can add this missing option menu Hardware Diagnostics UEFI?

    So I took the chance to run this BIOS file "sp68425.exe" in Windows 10 and everything seemed to work fine except the error message short after the new throw about 1 or 2 seconds that an error has been discovered, which needs to be solved and a percentage that was happening 100% before 10 of Windows start still.

    Now, everything seems to work ok: I can access the BIOS again much easier than the old BIOS dating sometime in 2012, I can boot Windows 10 without any error message longer, I can restore my WindowsImageBackups using the repair-CD as well as well as the SystemRestoreDrive I had both created on Windows 10. And the new BIOS version number and date are displayed under the W10 and also after the start systeminfo pressing keys ESC and F1. Is there anything else I can do to check the correct functioning of the BIOS?

    Concerning

    Seek and you will find what I found, it was supposed to be the latest version of "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI" (v. 5.9.0.0) I installed immediately on the UEFI System Partition to update the old one in my laptop (c. 1.6.0.0). This provided the desired options '-update BIOS "and"BIOS-Rollback"after pressing the F2 key without having to start Windows or if this does ' t OS start.
